The Chair may recognize Members for special-order speeches for up to 4 hours after the conclusion of 5-minute special-order speeches. Such speeches may not extend beyond the 4-hour limit without the permission of the Chair, which may be granted only with advance consultation between the leaderships and notification to the House. However, the Chair will not recognize for any special-order speeches beyond midnight. The Chair will first recognize Members for 5-minute special-order speeches, alter- nating initially and subsequently between the parties regardlessof the date the order was granted by the House. The Chair will then recognize Members for longer special- order speeches. A Member recognized for a 5-minute special-order speech may not be recognized for a longer special-order speech. The 4-hour limitation will be divided between the majority and minority parties. Each party is entitled to reserve its first hour for respective leaderships or their designees. Recognition for periods longer than 5 minutes also will alternate initially and subsequently between the parties each day. The allocation of time within each party’s 2-hour period (or shorter period if prorated to end by midnight) will be determined by a list submitted to the Chair by the respective leaderships. Members may not sign up with their leadership for any spe- cial-order speeches earlier than 1 weekprior to the special order. Additional guidelines may be established for such sign-ups by the respective leaderships. Pursuant to clause 2(a) of rule V, the television cameras will not pan the Chamber, but a ‘‘crawl’’ indicating the conduct of morning-hour debate or that the House has completed its legislative business and is proceeding with special-order speeches will appear on the screen. The Chair may announce other adaptations during this period.

HUNGATE* To what extent do procedural requirements govern the substantive content of legislation enacted by the United States Congress? Lawyers acquainted with the consequences of suing in tort or as- sumpsit, when their client bit into a tack while eating blueberry pie or chewed a stone in a bowl of beans,1 well realize the homage our courts sometimes pay to procedure. What legal scholar hasn't savored the his- torical dilemma of whether to sue in trespass or trespass on the case? And, if the case is not your own, you can currently enjoy the subtle but significant difference in a judgment depending on whether it was taken as a summary judgment, a default judgment, or a judgment on the pleadings. When our own case or judgment is lost because of some procedural insufficiency, we may deplore those who worship "dry form" to the detri- ment of substantive merits.

In other words, does someone like former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA) have an ideologically conservative voting record because he’s a Republican OR is he a Republican because he is ideologically conservative?

  • House Rules Changes Affecting Floor Proceedings in the 116Th Congress (2019-2020)
    House Rules Changes Affecting Floor Proceedings in the 116th Congress (2019-2020) June 27, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45787 SUMMARY R45787 House Rules Changes Affecting Floor June 27, 2019 Proceedings in the 116th Congress (2019-2020) Jane A. Hudiburg As agreed to in the House, H.Res. 6, a resolution adopting the rules of the House of Analyst on Congress and Representatives, provided amendments to the rules, as well as separate orders, that affect floor the Legislative Process procedure in the 116th Congress (2019-2010). These amendments changed procedures in the full House and in the Committee of the Whole. The rules changes altered when a resolution that would cause a vacancy in the Office of Speaker would qualify as a question of privilege. Under a new provision to clause 2 of Rule IX, resolutions declaring a vacancy of the chair are not privileged unless they are offered by direction of a party caucus or conference. H.Res. 6 established a Consensus Calendar for the consideration of certain broadly supported measures that have not been reported by their committees of primary jurisdiction. One rules change allows the Speaker to schedule consideration of legislation that has been on the Private Calendar for seven days. Another change requires the Speaker to schedule the consideration of a motion to discharge that has garnered the necessary 218 signatures to be placed on the Discharge Calendar (and has been on that calendar for at least seven legislative days). Prior to the rules change, measures on the Private Calendar and motions on the Discharge Calendar were to be considered on specified days of the month.

  • Lex Majoris Partis: How the Senate Can End the Filibuster on Any Day
    LECTURE LEX MAJORIS PAR TIS: HOW THE SENATE CAN END THE FILIBUSTER ON ANY DAY BY SIMPLE MAJORITY RULE AKHIL REED AMARt INTRODUCTION Though I never knew Professor Brainerd Currie-he died when I was just a lad-I did know and admire his son, Professor David Currie, who passed away in 2007. I was especially impressed by the younger Currie's sustained interest in congressional constitutionalism'-that is, in various constitutional issues that have arisen in Congress and that have often involved special rules and procedures of Congress itself. In the tradition of the younger Professor Currie, I propose to use this hour, as the 2013 Currie Lecturer, to address one of the most important contemporary issues of congressional constitutionalism: the Senate filibuster. In this hour I shall argue that, contrary to what many senators say and what some of them might even believe, the Senate may eliminate current filibuster practice on any day it chooses, and may do so by a simple majority vote. My main argument today reprises material from my recent book, America's Unwritten Constitution: The Precedents and Principles We Live By, and I am particularly grateful Copyright @ 2014 Akhil Reed Amar. t Sterling Professor of Law and Political Science, Yale University. This essay derives, virtually verbatim, from the Currie Lecture, delivered at Duke University School of Law on February 21, 2013. Special thanks to the editors of the Duke Law Journal for their kind willingness to accommodate my crazy schedule. Readers of this Lecture may be interested to learn that, exactly nine months after I delivered these remarks at Duke-on Thursday, November 21, 2013-the U.S.
